    I recently won some lamps from an auction. I love them! I am new to this antique realm, and was wondering what these would go for if I were to sell them? Any information on them would be so much appreciated. I’ve attached some images. They are in working condition. Thank you!

    I will say that these came from a rather wealthy estate auction.

    Value is determined by sooooo many factors... especially with larger items like lamps.
    Where in the world are you located?
    Are you willing to ship to a buyer? It would be costly and difficult to do so safely.
    If limited to selling locally, values are greatly decreased. That's likely why you got them for a good price. (An assumption on my part.)
    Would you attempt to sell them yourself or utilize a dealer or auction house, both of which would take a significant cut of the money?

    Hi! I live in Canada. I understand, it’s difficult to know. I like them, but since I live in a small apartment not a ton of space. They are approx 31” high. This was my first time bidding on anything - at an online estate auction. To be honest, this estate auction had so many interesting expensive antique items! I really just am beginning to appreciate antiques, so I snagged these.
    I was able to take the lamp shade off and bubble wrap the lamp quite nicely (when I picked them up), but yes I understand the issue with shipping. I would be willing to, depending on the price.
